Word Clock In
The CDC five caters for digital audio I/O in the form of eight AES3 inputs and eight AES3 outputs,
accessible on the rear of the control surface. The AES3 outputs have Sample Rate Converters (SRCs)
and can operate at any frequency required by applying an external clock source to the WORD CLOCK
IN connector. The external clock must be selected on the AES3 Configuration Page on the MENU
Screen.
Word Clock Out
The CDC five’s internal word lock is fixed at 96 kHz, and a clock signal is always available at the rear of
the console at the WORD CLOCK OUT connector.
